Chapter 18 - Hiring female secretary

Keep up the good work, Nicholas website is ready to sell music tapes after tasting the sweetness. The film company made a fortune from the Nicholas website. With this example, music tapes are easy to talk about. As a result, Geely Hutt arranged for manpower to go to various record companies to discuss cooperation. At the same time, Nicholas.com will build four large warehouses across the United States and set up its own logistics company at the same time.

However, these have to be taken slowly, and it is impossible to do it at once.

First, the first warehouse was located in the suburbs of Los Angeles, covering an area of ​​100,000 square meters. It cost 10 million US dollars to purchase the land. Secondly, the construction was expected to be completed in 1990. This is not as simple as building a warehouse, which contains all kinds of high-tech, mechanization, automation, and systemization. It is a very large project!

The logistics company that Nicholas.com currently cooperates with is FedEx. As an e-commerce giant, having its own logistics company can better **** the company! !

The formation of a logistics company is not disclosed.

The Nicholas website and FedEx are cooperating well. If they know that Nicholas website has formed a logistics company, the relationship will be deadlocked. What's more, due to capital and scale constraints, Nicholas Logistics can only operate in California, and its coverage is not as wide as the United States. At this time, FedEx is already an international logistics company with a global business scope, which is very impressive!

The Nicholas website spends money like water, and Henry looks distressed.

But now it is a huge loss in exchange for performance to stabilize the position of the e-commerce giant. A website similar to Nicholas in the United States has been established. If Nicholas does not dispute, he will most likely be eliminated. One wrong step will lose the game. The "Matthew Effect" is most clearly reflected in the Internet, the strong the stronger, the weak the weaker! !

For example, if QQ is strong, other instant chat software is dead, and it can't catch up no matter how to catch up.

Alibaba, Taobao, these are also very typical examples! !

If the Nicholas website stops and does not become strong, it will be surpassed, then fall behind, or even collapse!

Nicholas has more and more business, and Henry has more and more companies, and Henry feels a little too busy. Gilly Hutt suggested that he hire a portable secretary. Henry thought about it and found it reasonable. So, in the name of Nicholas Group, a female secretary was recruited from the outside world. Don't say why it's a female secretary. If it's a man, would you not find a female secretary?

Although the Nicholas Group Company is not a big company, it is well-known in the Internet, and its salary is very good, with a monthly salary of 10,000 US dollars, which is absolutely high-level white-collar treatment. After the news was posted, the followers were like a cloud, and many people came. The company uniformly arranged interviews, and Henry also acted as the chief examiner himself.

The people here are all kinds of people, including freshly graduated college students, and corporate elites, but after an interview for a morning, Henry hardly saw a close eye. This secretary not only needs to be outstanding, but also has to look comfortable. There are many female applicants from Harvard University, Stanford University, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Although they are very talented, they pass away at the first pass.

Henry has a little appearance association.

A portable secretary, who looks ugly, how can I get it?

At noon, Henry was about to go out to eat Chinese food. Just out of the company, a girl rushed in recklessly and accidentally knocked Henry.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!!" The girl nodded quickly and bent over to apologize.

The propaganda poster on the girl's hand fell to the ground, and Henry glanced at it. It was his advertisement for a female secretary. Henry asked, "You are here to apply."

"Yes..." the girl said shyly, "I'm sorry, I was too anxious just now because I wanted to catch up with the job fair, I'm so sorry!"

"Oh, the job fair in the morning is over. It's lunch time. The job fair in the afternoon will not start until two o'clock."

"Oh, thank you, I thought I couldn't keep up!" The girl patted her chest in fear, thanking Henry.

"It's okay..." Henry nodded and passed her.

After having lunch, Henry returned to the company and saw the young girl in the lobby sitting alone in the corner, holding a resume, her expression was very nervous. Henry thought for a while, but walked over.

"Do you have lunch?" Henry asked.

The girl looked up, and it turned out that it was the boy she had just bumped into: "No, I'm not hungry now."

"Are you nervous now?"

"Yes, this is the first interview for me."

Henry looked at her carefully. Judging from her dressing, she was obviously a poor man. He wore a very dirty, old and obviously spacious clothes, which made it difficult to see her figure. From a distance, there is no trace of brilliance. But when I look closer, I can see that the girl has snowy skin and beautiful appearance, but what makes Henry very suspicious is that this girl is probably under 16 years old. Maybe you haven't graduated from high school, how come you come for the interview?

This interview is very high, and non-business elites cannot do it!

Henry asked his doubts: "You seem to be under 16 years old, are you? Come here at such a young age."

"I, I... will be 16 years old next month." The girl defended herself.

"This job fair recruits social elites, all college graduates from prestigious schools. UU reading www.uukanshu.com I mean, how come you come to participate in this job fair?"

"Because the salary is very high!!" The girl said firmly, "I need money now, so I will try it anyway!"

Henry was a little curious. The girl was nervous before, but now she is full of determination. She couldn't help asking, "Why do you need money?"

"I..." The girl suddenly choked up and stopped talking!

Henry was taken aback for a moment. It seemed that the girl was unspeakable.

"Mind if I take a look at your resume?" Henry asked.

"Oh, yes, no problem." The girl handed over her resume.

Henry opened his resume and looked at it.

Er, I got a perfect score on the SAT and participated in the National Mathematics Olympiad. I won first place, and then I received an acceptance letter from Harvard University...Student!

"Why don't you go to Harvard University?"

The girl pursed her mouth, hesitated, and finally went all over the truth: "My mother is sick, I will take care of her at home..."

Oh I got it. When Henry looked at the girl, he felt full of emotion. He gave up Harvard University, which everyone yearns for, and went home to take care of his mother. This spirit admired Henry very much. Reminiscent, she said that she needed a lot of money, and it was not difficult to guess that she needed money to treat her mother. Henry felt a little sympathetic to her, and finally said to her: "God will help kind people, and your mother will get better!"
